After the 2018 edition where the launch theme was «Crafting Coalitions for Change», this year the Forum will follow the discussions towards “Partnership of Equals: Sharing Values, Sharing Prosperity" – a new approach and paradigm for the relationship between Europe and Africa, changing the narrative for both continents to create an accountable, prosperous and sustainable future together.

Five panel discussions will take place around the topics: i) building a new Africa–Europe relationship based on mutual respect towards investment and trade; ii) raise awareness of the ‘continent of the future’ innovation potential; iii) face migration flows as an opportunity for growth, talent and employment source; iv) Africa as the land of opportunity and playground where impact investment and innovation is the upfront; and v) transform cultural and historical heritage into an economic asset for countries’ economies, suitable for tourism-oriented activity.

Hosted by the Portuguese Diaspora Council and the Municipality of Cascais, with the High Patronage of the Presidency of the President of the Portuguese Republic and the Government of Portugal, led by José Manuel Durão Barroso (Chairman of the EurAfrican Forum and former President of the European Commission / former Prime Minister of Portugal) and Filipe de Botton (Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Portuguese Diaspora Council).
